Everglades National Park - West Lake Boat Ramp

West Lake Boat Ramp offers a concrete ramp with two docks and ample amenities including a covered picnic area, modern restrooms, and parking for boat trailers, making it ideal for both paddlers and anglers.

Access is limited to motorboats with 6 horsepower or less, plus canoes and kayaks, with motor boats prohibited from entering Alligator Creek at the lake's east end.

Note: Secure your vehicle with a tarp and bungee cords, as vultures in the parking lot are known to damage vehicles.
